SSH

Remote Control > Files/Processes > SSH

The SSH page runs an SSH command line session on a selected, active Linux or Apple machine. SSH sessions can only be initiated from a Windows-based machine. Only Linux or Apple machines with an or or icon are active.

ActiveX Control

Remote control, FTP and SSH can only be initiated from Windows OS machines. An ActiveX control automatically configures and runs the package for you. The first time you use any of these packages on a new machine, your browser may ask if it is OK to download and install this ActiveX control. Click yes when asked. If the ActiveX control is blocked by the browser from running, the user is presented with a link to manually download and run the package manually.

Running an SSH Session

1. Click any Linux or Mac machine that displays a hyperlink beneath the machine ID name.
   • A second page states the encrypted SSH session is starting.
   • It attempts to automatically load the ActiveX control. If the ActiveX control fails to load, click the here hyperlink to download the ActiveX control manually and run it.
   • Once the ActiveX control is downloaded and run, the SSH command line window displays on this same page.
2. The SSH command line session prompts you to enter an administrator username and password.
3. Click the Back hyperlink to end the SSH command line session.
